According to the consulate, the three fatalities occurred in different locations and were unrelated to one another. No further details about the circumstances of the incidents were released by the consulate.

In a statement, the consulate expressed its sorrow over the loss of life and reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the Nigerian community in South Africa.
